My foreman, engine is all stock, no snorkel or anything. Cleaned the carb because it was backfiring and idling fine but when you give it throttle the power isn’t there. Ran great last time I was out about 3 weeks ago. New plug. I’m lost. There is a little rattle in the exhaust, seems to be a new noise. It did always backfire when I went down a hill and let off the throttle. Any help would be great. Thanks

If your sure the carb is cleaned correctly...check to see if exhaust is plugged/restricted/ They do break internally over time, could be restricting exhaust flow.

mine did the same thing and it turns out that i got water in my gas. i bought some mix in carb cleaner and fuel additive and it sorted it out
